To define a Function[edit]
- Select the function you wish to define from the combo box
- In the List view click the check box(es) of the parameter(s) that need to be set in order to access the function.
- select each parameter name in turn. The parameter control will appear. Set its required level.
- set the time that these values are required to be present on the parameters in order to perform the function.
When you create a template you need not pay any attention to the order in which parameters are defined. This dialog allows you to correctly assign channel offsets to the parameters.
List | displays the offsets assigned to parameters. Select the offset you wish to change and use the Move up or Move down buttons to change its position. |
Move Up | Moves the selected offset up the list. Its offset value will change accordingly |
Move Down | Moves the selected offset down the list. Its offset value changes accordingly. |
